FORMER LAWRENCE resident Kathleen Cobb was convicted of murdering Henry Davis on Feb. 27, 1980. The crime has now been expunged, or removed, from her record.

TOPEKA — A former Lawrence resident who was convicted of murder in a highprofile case more than 30 years ago has had her conviction expunged.

The expungement for Kathleen Cobb means that when a criminal background check is conducted for employment, the conviction will not show up on her record.

Cobb’s expungement was approved by Shawnee County District Court Judge David Debenham. A spokesman for the Shawnee County District Attorney’s office said the office opposed the expungement because of the seriousness of the crime. Debenham declined to comment on the case.

When the Lawrence Journal-World requested to see the legal petitions and expungement order, Shawnee County officials said no records related to the case could be released.

Cobb has moved out of Kansas and declined to comment about the issue.

Cobb served more than 17 years in prison after being convicted of first-degree murder in the death of Henry Davis, a Lawrence resident.

At the time of the incident, Cobb and Davis were both 22, close friends and drug users.

According to testimony at the time, Cobb had said that Davis asked her to help him commit suicide. He wanted to kill himself because he had a premonition that he would suffer a car crash and long, painful death, Cobb said.

On Feb. 27, 1980, Cobb and

AN AERIAL VIEW LOOKING NORTHWEST TUESDAY SHOWS DOWNTOWN LAWRENCE at the intersection of Ninth and New Hampshire streets.

On Tuesday, the Lawrence City Commission voted 4-0 to create a redevelopment district on both the southeast and northeast corners of Ninth and New Hampshire streets, which will make the area eligible to receive special tax breaks.

Tax breaks would help developers build underground parking garages

By Chad Lawhorn clawhorn@ljworld.com

If the southeast corner of Ninth and New Hampshire streets is ever to become anything other than a vacant lot, it likely will take some financial incentives from the city to make it happen, city commissioners agreed Tuesday.

Commissioners at their weekly meeting cleared the

way for a nearly $12 million package of incentives to be offered to developers of a proposed $43 million redevelopment at Ninth and New Hampshire that is expected to include a multistory hotel/retail building on the southeast corner and a multistory apartment/office building on the northeast corner.

Commissioners agreed to create a redevelopment district

on both the southeast and northeast corners of Ninth and New Hampshire streets, which will make CITY COMMISSION the area eligible to receive special tax breaks to help developers build a pair of private, below-ground parking garages to serve new development at the intersection.

In total, the incentives are expected to reach $11.8 million over an approximately 20-year period, but commissioners Tuesday stressed none of the money would have to come from the city’s current budget.

Instead, all of the money will come from new taxes generated directly by the development.

“I wish this project would happen without this, but I’m confident it won’t,” said City Commissioner Mike Dever.

Commissioners approved the redevelopment district on a 4-0 vote.

Commissioner Aron Cromwell was absent.

Commissioners said the fact the property on the southeast corner of the intersection has sat largely vacant for the better part of 30 years led them to believe any significant development on the corner would be unlikely to happen without assistance.

Officials with the development group, which is led by Lawrence businessmen Doug Compton and Mike Treanor, said that was the case. Bill Fleming, a Lawrence attorney with the development group, said it is not economically feasible to build a project on the corner without providing parking. But because the lot is small in size, he said, parking will have to occur below ground.

“That is an expensive solution,” Fleming said.

Several more procedural votes are expected to take place before the end of this year to finalize the incentives package, but Tuesday’s vote set in motion a plan that will create:

A tax increment financing plan to cover both the northeast and southeast corners. A TIF allows new property and sales taxes generated by the development to be rebated back to the development group to pay for qualified infrastructure expenses, which includes the private, below-ground parking garages.

Creation of a transportation district development tax, which will allow for an extra 1 percent sales tax to be

I don’t really think this is an incentive. I think it is welfare.”

— Laura Routh, Lawrence resident, speaking to the City Commission about giving $12 million in incentives for a development at Ninth and New Hampshire streets downtown charged on purchases made inside the two new buildings.

The use of industrial revenue bonds, which will allow the development group to avoid paying sales taxes on the purchase of building materials used to construct the buildings.

Commissioners heard nearly an a hour and a half of public comment both for and against the incentives.

“I don’t really think this is an incentive,” said Laura Routh, a Lawrence resident. “I think it is welfare.”

City commissioners, though, said a key consideration is the deal is being structured so developers will take the risk if the redevelopment does not perform as expected.

The developers will be required to finance the entire project, and the developers only will be reimbursed from new tax revenues generated by the development.

If the development does not produce the revenue anticipated, the city won’t be obligated to make up the difference.

In other city news, commissioners deferred for three weeks a decision on whether to start the historic review process on whether property at 1106 R.I. should be demolished.

The three-week delay will give members of the Barland family more time to present a plan to rehabilitate or sell the property.

Associated Press

TOPEKA — Air quality advisories remained in effect Tuesday for Kansas metropolitan areas as a heat wave that’s claimed five lives this season continues to grip the region.

The Kansas Department of Health and Environment said a combination of extreme heat, low wind and clear skies is raising ozone levels in urban areas. The advisories cover Kansas City, Topeka and Wichita and were first issued over the weekend.

Elevated ozone levels are of particular concern for children, the elderly and people with chronic lung illnesses.

KDHE spokeswoman Miranda Steele said Tuesday two more heat-related deaths were reported to the Office of Vital Statistics, bringing the total to five. She said there were more than 300 cases of heat-related illnesses reported by hospitals. Steele said the reporting of heatrelated illnesses is voluntary and cautioned the actual number was likely higher.

Tom Langer, KDHE’s director of the division of environmental health, said as the heat continues, people are likely to feel “oppressed and lethargic.”

“A person that believes they are going to be affected by the heat likely will be,” Langer said. “Individuals that think the weather will not affect them are like-

“

A person that believes they are going to be affected by the heat likely will be. Individuals that think the weather will not affect them are likely to blame other elements if they suffer ill effects after exertion in the heat.”

ly to blame other elements if they suffer ill effects after exertion in the heat.”

He said athletes must listen to their bodies while working out in the heat.

They are likely to lose focus and become susceptible not only to heat-related illness but other injuries.

Langer said athletes should practice in the early morning or late in the evening, but take frequent breaks and cool down often if they do practice in the middle of the day.

The National Weather Service continued to issue excessive heat warnings and heat advisories for Kansas as temperatures were forecast to remain above 100 degrees. The only respite was a 20 to 50 percent chance of rain and thunderstorms starting today in northwest Kansas and extending to southeastern Kansas on Thursday.

Temperatures will drop into the middle to upper 90s as the chance of precipitation moves through the state, returning to triple-digit conditions by the weekend.

Meanwhile, Gov. Sam Brownback toured northwestern Kansas to view the damage from pro-

longed heat and drought.

Brownback visited central and southeastern Kansas last week. The U.S. Drought Monitor showed 64 percent of Kansas experiencing extreme drought as of last week.

“You can really see the effects of the drought here in northwest Kansas. Despite the brutal heat and dry conditions, I have been impressed at the level of cooperation among communities,” Brownback said.

The governor said changes made to Kansas water policy during the 2012 legislative session, including allowing greater flexibility in managing water usage, were paying off and helping farmers, ranchers and communities.

Brownback is seeking expansion of a federal disaster declaration that would cover 103 of 105 Kansas’ counties. The declaration allows farmers and ranchers to be eligible for federal programs to cope with the loss of agriculture production related to the drought.

As drought spreads,

ranchers sell cattle.

The lawsuit also contends that local union officials “dominated and controlled” the city’s decisions regarding fire department personnel, including sending the city manager and fire department employees emails that said employees could apply for promotions and to fill vacancies. The petition said that only male employees were named in those emails.

City spokesman David Bevens said the city doesn’t comment on pending litigation. Clint Patty, who represents Local 83, said Tuesday that the union “categorically” denies the allegations in the lawsuit.

“It’s just important for people to know that we deny the allegations, and they’re going to respond accordingly,” Patty said.

Petty was hired as one of Topeka’s first four female firefighters in 1985.

She then became its first female training officer in 1995 and its first female deputy chief in September 2004.

A city separation form gave the reason for terminating Petty, 50, in February 2010 as “layoff/budget.”

The lawsuit is seeking damages for lost wages and benefits, as well as future lost wages and benefits, anguish, costs and legal fees.

Davis had written a suicide note. But a jury said it was murder, and she was sentenced to life in prison with the first chance at parole after 15 years. She appealed to the Kansas Supreme Court, but lost.

After getting out of prison in 1998, Cobb got a social worker’s degree and worked as a drug counselor in Wyoming.

In 2010, Cobb returned to Lawrence, working as a case manager for the Lawrence-Douglas County Housing Authority.

She received a social worker’s license from the Kansas Behavioral Sciences Regulatory Board after a 5-3 vote by the board, which added numerous conditions to her license.

Last January, there was a hearing in a Shawnee County District Court on Cobb’s request to expunge her conviction, according to the Shawnee County District Attorney’s office. Judge Debenham issued the expungement order in February.

said. “There are some people who probably have had those cards in their wallet for a couple of decades now. We have a Web site now.”

Shew is urging people to visit that website, at douglas-county.com, to look at sample ballots.

The ballots will list all the candidates up for election.

People also can already cast their votes at the Douglas County Courthouse. Advance voting has been open since July 18 and runs through noon on Aug. 6. The primary election is Aug. 7.

Shew said turnout for advanced voting had been very light.

“I think we have been averaging about eight vot-

ers a day,” Shew said. “It has been slow even by primary standards. But it has been really hot. It will be interesting to see if we get a break in the weather, if people get out and vote.”

Shew said state law did not require him to send out all new voter information cards. But he said it seemed to make good sense to do so, given that most of the cards are 10 years old or older. He said he’s not sure when the last time the county updated all of its cards.

TOPEKA (AP) — A former Topeka deputy fire chief is seeking more than $1.3 million in a federal discrimination lawsuit filed against the city of Topeka and a firefighters union.

The lawsuit was filed by Kathy Petty, a former deputy chief of the Topeka Fire Department, against the city and the Local 83 of the International Association of Firefighters, according to The Topeka Capital-Journal.

In the lawsuit, filed in federal court last month, Petty accuses the city of gender discrimination and retaliation and claims the union supported the city’s decision to terminate Petty and hire less-qualified men.

9/11 fire truck leaves humbling impression

By George Diepenbrock gdiepenbrock@ljworld.com

When Sharon Sherrill, of Hutchinson, who was visiting Lawrence this week, found out a fire truck that responded to the World Trade Center complex on 9/11 would be stopping in Lawrence, she had to come see it.

Tuesday morning inside Lawrence station No. 5, 1911 Stewart Ave., Sherrill was humbled as she looked over the Rescue 4 engine that formerly served New York City.

“It just brings you closer to these men that were out there,” Sherrill said. “It really makes you realize what their families have gone through since. I think we all need to be very humbled when we think about what these guys do for us.”

Dozens of Lawrence and area firefighters and their families along with members of

the public viewed the truck as Lawrence-Douglas County Fire Medical hosted a group that takes it around the country.

Nine firefighters on the truck lost their lives responding to the attack at the complex. They were among 343 firefighters and paramedics who died in the attack. A group known as the Remembrance Rescue Project has purchased and restored the engine to use it as a mobile memorial that travels the country.

“We want to keep the honor and education going on the terrible event that happened that day and to remember the fallen firefighters of 9/11,” said Kris Mola, a Colorado firefighter who is part of the group taking the truck from Chicago to Denver on Tuesday.

Mola, who grew up in Chicago, said he became involved with the project because he was friends with group mem-

MORGAN LESLIE, 11, OF LAWRENCE, MODELS AN OUTFIT that she put together for the Douglas County 4-H Fashion Revue on Tuesday at the Douglas County Fairgrounds. The theme of this year’s show was “cruisin’ to the country fair.”

Fashion took to the catwalk at the Douglas County Fairgrounds on Tuesday evening in the annual 4-H Fashion Revue.

Boys and girls from 10 4-H groups — 54 out of the 171 total entries — strutted their stuff in selections of handmade and purchased outfits in front of a classic 1955 Plymouth and 1950 Studebaker to tunes from the musical “Grease.” It was all in good fun un-

der the “cruisin’ to the county fair” theme.

Macey Frost, an 11-year-old in the Palmyra 4-H group, won a ribbon for her “Aztec-inspired” skirt, T-shirt and denim-jacket ensemble that featured a wooden necklace her grandmother gave her after a trip to South America.

Macey is involved in several 4-H activities from photography (one of her favorites) to crafts to horse-showing. But the clothing selection project is fun because it gives her the opportu-

nity to work inside with her friends, she said.

Macey’s outfit had a dressy-casual appeal, but Alexis Clark went formal. Her mom made her vibrant purple, blue and pink tulle dress, with a little help on the design side from Alexis, a 15-year-old in the Stull Busy Beavers. It was a winner, too, and she said she’s enjoyed her five years in the project because she gets the chance HOLLY VESECKY, 11, Baldwin to show off her outfits.

BRIEFLY Man arrested on kidnapping charges A man accused of kidnapping a woman in Ottawa in May has been arrested in Wellington south of Wichita, Ottawa police said Tuesday.

Capt. Adam Weingartner, an Ottawa police spokesman, said that on Sunday evening, police in Wellington arrested Jordan J.A. Henson, 26, on a kidnapping warrant in the Franklin County case.

Police in May asked for the public’s help in finding Henson after they said he took a 32-year-old woman from her Ottawa residence in the 600 block of South Walnut Street during a domestic incident.

“A patrol sergeant following up on information received that day made contact with Henson by telephone and arranged to meet the suspect in Wellington,” Weingartner said.

Wellington police assisted Ottawa officers with the arrest, which was made without incident. He’s being held in the Franklin County jail on $250,000 bond, police said.

Hours after the May 5 incident, the woman escaped from her captor in Emporia.

Days later, officers in Morris County also recovered the vehicle that he allegedly stole from the woman in Ottawa.

“I guess we’ll see who buys it and what they do,” she said. “It’ll be their property to do with what they wish.”

Faulkner said there are no provisions for continuing the public access.

“This would strictly be the new owners’ call, but I would hope they would continue the legacy of this fine property,” he said.

Marci Penner, director of the Kansas Sampler Foundation, which named the Eight Wonders of Kansas, said some of the formations on the site have begun to crumble but she hopes the new owner will allow the public to continue visiting.

“When you first see it, your jaw drops,” Penner said. “It is this tall, chalk sentinel out there on the flat prairie. It is so unusual to see it.”

A HERD OF CATTLE BELONGING TO KEN GRECIAN DRINK from a water tank July 19 at his ranch in Palco. Grecian spent years meticulously breeding his cows to improve the genetics in each generation, but with Kansas in one of the worst droughts seen in decades, he’s struggling to find enough grazing to feed 300 cows, plus their calves.

He hopes to get by with selling only a quarter of his herd, but there are no guarantees with the drought expected to linger through October. of Agriculture reported Friday that the nation’s cattle inventory was the smallest since the agency began a July count in 1973.

It estimates the size of the nation’s herd each January and July. The U.S. had 97.8 million head as of July 1, 2 percent less than a year ago.

It is likely to take the beef industry years to recover. Cows have a ninemonth gestation period, and it can take up to two years after calves are born for them to grow big enough for slaughter.

The time needed to repair drought-damaged pastures will only extend that timetable because ranchers must have grass for grazing before they can add animals.

Grecian, 62, who farms northwest of Hays, said a local drought forced him to sell nearly 30 percent of his cattle in 2003. It took six years for him to rebuild once the drought ended. He did it by holding onto female calves and not selling them.

It’s possible, he said, to rebuild faster by buying animals, but that can be costly when few young, female cows are available, and farmers might not get the animals they want.

“It is our life, and we in-

Yang was not injured. The crash occurred about 1:30 p.m. in the westbound lane of Clinton Parkway near Lawrence Avenue.

vest a lot of emotion and energy and money into developing a cow herd that is genetically what we want,” Grecian said. “When we are forced to liquidate, it is not an easy thing to do. It is pretty heart-wrenching sometimes, but is part of the business.”

Cattle have been streaming into auction yards across the country in recent weeks as grazing land burns up in the sun, ponds and streams evaporate and prices for feed corn rise. In Oklahoma City, the number of cattle going to auction quadrupled in one week earlier this month, and in Kearney, Neb., it increased three-fold.

In Texas, some 36,000 cattle were brought to auctions last week — nearly triple the 13,400 animals sold just a couple of weeks earlier and approaching the 43,600 head sold at the same time during last summer’s brutal drought, according to the USDA.

Falling prices Calf prices are falling with so many animals on the market. A 600-pound calf now fetches $120 less than it brought in just a couple of months ago.

Prices for feeder cattle, which are typically fed grass before going to feedlots to be fattened on corn, have collapsed as corn prices have gone up. Feedlots are spending about $200 more per cow on corn than they were just months ago.

Beef prices were al-

ready falling after rising 10 percent last year amid the drought in the Southwest. They peaked at an average of $5.09 per pound in January, and then came down to about $4.93 per pound in June.

They are expected to increase again, but it’s not clear by how much. The USDA had predicted a 2.5 to 3.5 percent increase in beef prices for the year, but that was before the drought spread and cattle selloffs mounted.

Jon Ferguson, 63, has weaned calves earlier and sold some cows about a month earlier than usual to save pasture on his ranch near Kensington, Kan. He has about 450 pairs of cows and calves and nearly 1,200 other calves that he buys each year to fatten on grass before shipping them to a feedlot.

He shipped a third of his cattle from Kansas to Colorado to graze during a drought in the summer of 1989. He’s not sure whether that option will be available this year, or whether he should just liquidate and cut his costs now.

“If you can figure out a way to hang on to them at a reasonable cost until the drought is over, it typically pays you pretty well,” Ferguson said. But, he added, “If this thing persists through the summer, and we see these kinds of temperatures with no significant moisture relief, we will be in trouble by fall.”

Sherman Hemsley of ‘The Jeffersons’ dies EL PASO, TEXAS (AP) — Sherman Hemsley, the actor who made the irascible, bigoted George Jefferson of “The Jeffersons” one of television’s most memorable characters and a symbol for urban upward mobility, has died. He was 74.

Police in El Paso, Texas, said late Tuesday that Hemsley was found dead at his home on the eastside of the city. A statement from police said no foul play is suspected and that the exact cause of death is pending.

The Philadelphia-born Hemsley first played the blustering black Harlem businessman on CBS’s “All in the Family” before he was spun off onto “The Jeffersons,” which in 11 seasons from 1975 to 1985 became one of TV’s most successful sitcoms — particularly noteworthy with its mostly black cast.

With the gospel-style theme song of “Movin’ On Up,” the hit show depicted the wealthy former neighbors of Archie and Edith Bunker in Queens as they made their way on New York’s Upper East Side.

Hemsley and the Jeffersons (Isabel Sanford played his wife) often dealt with contemporary issues of racism but more frequently reveled in the sitcom archetype of a short-tempered, opinionated patriarch trying, often unsuccessfully to control his family.

Hemsley’s feisty, diminutive father with an exaggerated strut was a kind of black corollary to Archie Bunker — a stubborn, high-strung man

Yet unlike the blue-collar Bunker, played by Carroll O’Connor, he was a successful businessman whose was as rich as he was crass.

Despite the character’s many faults — money-driven, prejudiced, temperamental, a boar — Hemsley managed to make the character endearing as well, part of the reason it stayed on the air for so long. His performance was Emmy and Golden Globe nominated.

“He was a love of a guy” and “immensely talented,” said Norman Lear, producer of “The Jeffersons” and “All in the Family,” after learning of his death.

COLORADO THEATER SHOOTING

Few details emerge about suspect’s behavior in school

By Nicholas Riccardi and P. Solomon Banda Associated Press

CENTENNIAL, COLO. — James Holmes spent a year in a small neuroscience doctoral program, surrounded by scientists and roughly three dozen classmates delving into the inner workings of the brain.

The University of Colorado, Denver, isn’t saying if they had any warning signs.

Experts say, however, the intimacy of the program and its focus on the brain may not have been enough for staff and students to detect that Holmes was on a course that police say ended with a deadly rampage at a midnight showing of the new Batman movie.

Supported by a prestigious federal grant, Holmes, 24, was in the first year of a program at the Anschutz Medical Campus dedicated to neuroscience, studying such topics as how the brain works or malfunctions or helping develop drugs to treat epilepsy and other disorders.

But it is not behavioral science or psychology, experts say.

David Eagleman, who runs the Initiative on Neuroscience and the Law at Baylor University, said some neuroscientists are experts in mental illnesses and aberrant behavior, but others spend most of their time studying molecular chemistry.

“It’s really only a fraction of professors” who could identify a simmering mental disorder, Eagleman said. “Many people in neuroscience are not specialized in the issue of picking up mental illness ... There are plenty of people who just study mice and cats and stuff like that.”

Holmes is accused of methodically stockpiling weapons and explosives at work and at home that police say he used to kill 12 people and wound 58 more at a movie theater Friday in nearby Aurora. Police say he also booby-trapped his apartment with the intent to kill police officers.

Holmes’ arraignment hearing is on Monday.

Attention continued to focus on victims of the attack and their grieving families, many of whom turned on Tuesday to the grim task of preparing for funerals.

Dems make call for gun control WASHINGTON — A handful of Democrats are calling for a ban on high-capacity ammunition clips after the movie theater shooting rampage in Colorado, but House and Senate leaders of both parties have no plans to touch the issue this election year.

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid and Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, along with House Speaker John Boehner, told reporters Tuesday that there should be no push for tighter gun control.

They say the shooting should not be politicized and there’s little time left in the polarized Congress to tackle the issue. Still, four Democrats — Sens.

Robert Menendez and Frank Lautenberg of New Jersey, and Reps.

Diana DeGette of Colorado and Rep. Carolyn McCarthy of New York — say the shooting is only the latest evidence that the clips should be banned. shooting and stopped by a makeshift memorial to victims near the movie theater where they were shot.

Authorities say Holmes began shopping for firearms while studying neuroscience. He joined the program in June 2011 after receiving a National Institutes of Health grant to cover his tuition and provide a $26,000 annual living allowance.

The school refuses to say what specifically Holmes studied. But an online syllabus listed him as making a presentation in May during a class called “Biological Basis of Psychiatric and Neurological Disorders.”

In early June, Holmes took a standard oral exam that ends a graduate student’s first year. The school will not say whether he passed, but Holmes filed paperwork to withdraw from the program just days later. He never provided a written explanation for his departure.

Budget office: Obama’s health care law reduces deficit

By Andrew Taylor and Ricardo Alonso-Zaldivar Associated Press

WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama’s health care overhaul will shrink rather than increase the nation’s huge federal deficits over the next decade, Congress’ nonpartisan budget scorekeepers said Tuesday, supporting Obama’s contention in a major election-year dispute with Republicans.

About 3 million fewer uninsured people will gain health coverage because of last month’s Supreme Court ruling granting states more leeway, and that will cut the federal costs by $84 billion, the Congressional Budget Office said in the biggest changes from earlier estimates.

Republicans have insisted that “Obamacare” will actually raise deficits — by “trillions,” according to presidential candidate Mitt

Romney. But that’s not so, the budget office said.

The office gave no updated estimate for total deficit reductions from the law, approved by Congress and signed by Obama in 2010. But it did estimate that Republican legislation to repeal the overhaul — passed recently by the House — would itself boost the deficit by $109 billion from 2013 to 2022.

“Repealing the (health care law) will lead to an increase in budget deficits over the coming decade, though a smaller one than previously reported,” budget office director Douglas Elmendorf said in a letter to House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio.

The law’s mix of spending cuts and tax increases would more than offset new spending to cover uninsured people, Elmendorf explained.

Tuesday’s budget projections were the first since the Supreme Court upheld

most of the law last month but gave states the option of rejecting a planned expansion of Medicaid for their low-income residents. As a consequence, the budget office said, the law will cover fewer uninsured people.

Thirty million uninsured people will be covered by 2022, or about 3 million fewer than projected this spring before the court ruling, the report said.

As a result, taxpayers will save about $84 billion from 2012 to 2022. That brings the total cost of expanding coverage down to $1.2 trillion, from about $1.3 trillion in the previous estimate.

The Congressional Budget Office has consistently projected that Obama’s

The turn also was a reminder that the increasingly biting campaign, which paused over the weekend in deference to

the deadly movie theater shooting in Colorado, was on again in earnest.

“This conduct is contemptible,” Romney said of the leaks of classified information. “It betrays our national interest. It compromises our men and women in the field. And it

Notable The nation’s governors are asking Congress to help states recover an estimated $20 billion in sales taxes that go uncollected by out-of-state online merchants every year.

Tennessee Gov. Bill Haslam told the House Judiciary Committee on Tuesday that it isn’t fair to local businesses to exempt online purchases from state sales taxes.

Other Republican governors, such as Chris Christie of New Jersey, have endorsed a bill to make out-of-state Internet merchants charge and collect state taxes.

Top officials: Markets wrong on Spain FRANKFURT, GERMANY (AP) — Top officials from Germany and Spain say the high interest rates that financial markets are demanding from Spain don’t reflect the country’s economic strengths.

German Finance Minister Wolfgang Schaeuble and Spain’s Economy Minister Luis de Guindos issued the joint statement Tuesday after a meeting in Berlin. Bond markets have pushed the yields on Spain’s benchmark 10year bonds over 7 percent.

That means Spain faces higher rates when it taps bond markets to pay off its bonds as they expire, and could force it to seek a bailout from other member governments in the euro.

Schaeuble and de Guindos said that level “does not correspond to the fundamentals of the Spanish economy, its growth potential and the sustainability of its public debt.”

They said Spain has taken steps to get its economy back on track so it can keep paying its debts, and has put a balanced budget rule in its constitution.

High bond market yields forced Greece, Ireland and Portugal to seek bailouts. The fear is that

At the time it was approved in 2010, CBO estimated the law would reduce the deficit by $143 billion from 2010 to 2019.

And CBO estimated that last year’s Republican repeal legislation would increase deficits by $210 billion from 2010 to 2021.

That may sound like a lot of money, but it’s actually a hair-thin margin at a time when federal deficits are expected to average around $1 trillion a year for the foreseeable future.

Actually, the government will spend more. It just won’t go onto the national credit card because the health care law will be paid for with a combination of spending cuts and tax increases.

GOP leaders sought to shift attention from claims about the deficit and focused instead on the additional spending. “What we know from today’s CBO report ... is that the new health care law is dramatically increasing health care spending and costs,” said Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell of Kentucky.

Romney seeks independent probe of White House leak RENO, NEV. — Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney on Tuesday called for an independent investigation into claims the White House had leaked national security information for President Barack Obama’s political gain, part of a searing speech that marked a wholesale indictment of the Democrat’s foreign policy.

In a race that has so far focused almost entirely on the sluggish economy, Romney also critiqued Obama’s handling of Iran’s nuclear threat, the violence in Syria and relations with Israel during a speech to the Veterans of Foreign Wars convention.

In his first foreign policy speech since emerging as the likely Republican presidential nominee, Romney accused Obama of putting

Spain’s economy is much bigger and would be costly to bail out. There are also concerns that if Spain seeks a bailout, Italy, the No. 3 economy in the eurozone, may also find it difficult to finance its debt load.

Spanish and other EU government officials are seeking to play down fears that Spain may need a bailout for its government, not just it banks.

Schaeuble and de Guindos said the best way to overcome the crisis would be to quickly implement plans to put fresh money into Spain’s shaky banking system using up to Ð100 billion in loans from the eurozone’s bailout fund.

Many banks suffered heavy losses from real estate loans.

EU leaders have also agreed to set up a centralized banking supervisor that could directly put new money into banks, sparing governments from the burden of bailing them out. Troubled banks have been a key part of Europe’s crisis because markets fear that governments will go broke bailing them out. In Ireland, in particular, supporting banks contributed heavily to the country’s debt woes.

demands a full and prompt investigation by a special prosecutor, with explanation and consequence.”

Attorney General Eric Holder has appointed two federal prosecutors to get to the bottom of the leaks, but Romney suggested that wasn’t good enough. The White House has rejected calls for a special prosecutor, saying there is no need for one.

Romney stopped short of accusing Obama specifically of leaking information that includes details of the mission that killed Osama bin Laden last year. He made the charge as he prepared to embark later Tuesday on a trip to Great Britain, Israel and Poland and meetings with a host of foreign leaders.

Obama has strongly rejected the leak accusations that, until Tuesday,

had been contained to Republicans in Congress.

During a news conference last month, he called the accusations “offensive” and “wrong.”

White House spokesman Jay Carney responded Tuesday by saying Obama “feels extremely strongly about this” and noting Holder’s appointment of the two federal prosecutors to investigate.

After a series of setbacks, President Bashar Assad’s forces are solidifying their grip on Aleppo and Damascus, knowing that their fall would almost certainly spell the regime’s end.

The regime appears to be regaining momentum after a series of setbacks that put it on the defensive. But while its forces easily outgun the rebels in direct confrontations, the rebellion has spread them thin — pointing to a drawn-out civil war.

Money, sports KU’s ranking among Big 12 schools for athletic department support raises some questions about the health of the Williams Educational Fund.

A

recent mailing from the Kansas University athletic department should get the attention of loyal Jayhawk fans.

According to the solicitation, titled “201213 Basketball Fund Drive — NEW Annual Giving Timeline,” KU is near the bottom of the Big 12 Conference in the number of individual donors to its private fundraising organization, the Williams Educational Fund.

This is the fund that helps finance a wide range of needs within Kansas Athletics, such as scholarships, tuition, fees, books, room and board, travel, facilities and other athletic expenses. Based on how many dollars they contribute, donors earn points that determine the availability and priority of seating at basketball and football games, invitations to travel with the teams, special dinners with KU athletic department elites, invitations and/or tickets to special events, parking permits and other goodies.

Unfortunately, according to the mailing, the number of Williams Fund contributors is third from the bottom among Big 12 schools, ahead of only Baylor University and Texas Christian University, both private universities. Texas is at the top with 12,000 donors, followed

by Oklahoma, Oklahoma State, Kansas State, Texas Tech, West Virginia, Iowa State and Kansas. KU, by the way, exceeded TCU by just 32 donors.

The mailing notes the number of donors but not the number of dollars provided by loyal Jayhawk supporters. Maybe KU ranks much higher in total dollars.

However, the ranking should raise questions about why KU is not doing better.

The Williams Fund used to be known as a leaders, strong and effective. Is it because of the negative bullying tactics of former KU athletic director Lew Perkins, the miserable showing of the KU football team the past two years, poor efforts to sell the Williams’ program and recruit new donors, a lessening of interest in the KU sports programs, a lack of support from the chancellor’s office, or something else?

How will the current KU capital campaign fit into giving for KU Athletics?

KU basketball enjoys sellouts for every hone game, and there are few ways for a newcomer to buy season tickets without making a major gift or for current ticket holders to improve their seat locations without boosting their financial support.

So far, KU football has not attracted sellout attendance, but even so, football fans are expected to write bigger checks to the athletic department if they want to improve their seat locations.

Texas has always enjoyed great fan support, both in numbers and private giving, but it is questionable whether KU previously has rested at such a low level of donors as it does today.

It will be interesting to see what Sheahon Zenger’s athletic administration is able to achieve in private contributions and how the drive for more money for sports will interact with the university’s major drive to raise money for academic and research excellence at the school.

What will the 2013 report of Big 12 athletic donors show, both in the number of donors and the amount given?

Basketball donors, numberwise, probably have just about maxed out, although there will be enough hunger for better seat locations that total dollars may increase. The level of interest in football would appear to offer the best opportunity to bring in more dollars as coach Charlie Weis tries to field a better, more competitive team than the almost-winless teams of former coach Turner Gill.

Unfortunately, there is a definite correlation between money and winning.

College sports are big business, not amateur athletics.

Romney stuck in Cold War thinking Foreign policy hasn’t figured much in the presidential campaign, which is lucky for Mitt Romney.

With scant foreign policy experience, Romney has had trouble projecting himself as a statesman. His foreign policy statements have veered from vague to disturbingly hawkish.

So this week, he’s off to Europe and Israel in hopes of burnishing his image as the future leader of the “free world.” Unfortunately, the world Romney seeks to lead no longer exists.

Romney’s foreign affairs statements have a Rip Van Winkle quality, as if he had just emerged from a sleep of two decades. His Cold War language suits the bipolar world of the 20th century, not the current era.

One telling example: Earlier this year, he made the stunning claim that Russia was “our No. 1 geopolitical foe,” prompting former Secretary of State Colin Powell to comment, “C’mon, Mitt, think. That isn’t the case.”

Romney’s Cold War mindset prevents him from coming to grips with the major global problems he would have to deal with. In October, in a major foreign policy speech, he insisted: “This century must be an American century. In an American century, America leads the free world, and the free world leads the entire world.”

I agree that American leadership still matters mightily on most global issues. But does Romney intend, as he has stated, to increase our military by 100,000 troops and raise

Trudy Rubin

Romney’s cold war mind-set prevents him from coming to grips with the major global problems he would have to deal with.” defense spending — while cutting taxes? Has he read the newspapers for the last year?

Does he really think we still lead something called the “free world” against one nefarious enemy — I guess, in his view, Moscow?

Other powerhouse states are emerging, including, most obviously, China. Regional powers such as Turkey and Brazil are no longer constrained by the Cold War and don’t have to obey Washington. The security threats we face are no longer represented by one country or one “ism.”

These are geopolitical facts, not some plot cooked up by President Barack Obama. But Romney seems unwilling to face facts.

Nor does he confront the damage to America’s global reputation caused by the debacle of the Iraq war. Perhaps that’s because the list of Romney’s foreign policy advisers is heavy on hawkish members

of the George W. Bush team, including several who led the charge to invade Baghdad.

Though Romney never mentions George W., he’s close to former vice president and uber-hawk Dick Cheney, who just threw him a big fundraiser in Wyoming. Romney said last year that Cheney’s “wisdom and judgment” would provide a model for choosing his own vice president.

Romney’s homage to Cheney may be a ploy to convince right-wing Republicans of his conversion to conservatism. But his view of leadership does seem to channel Cheney with its heavy reliance on military and other threats.

On Afghanistan, Romney’s policy position is mostly vague and hard to differentiate from Obama’s. But he has said bluntly: “We should not negotiate with the Taliban.

We should defeat the Taliban.” Never mind that U.S. military commanders say the war cannot be won militarily.

I’ve been skeptical about the administration’s efforts to talk with Taliban factions, but the effort must be made.

Without a political settlement, the U.S. drawdown in Afghanistan will lead to civil war and chaos. Even former Bush national security adviser Stephen Hadley wrote an essay titled: “Enough Already: It’s Time to Talk to the Taliban.”

Waving his big stick, Romney doesn’t explain how open hostility toward Russia jibes with the need for Moscow’s help in moving military supplies into Afghanistan, and

troops and equipment out.

A vital northern supply route runs through Russia and central Asia.

As for China, Romney seems eager to set up a confrontation with the Asian giant immediately upon taking office. He promises to declare China a currency manipulator as soon as he takes the oath.

And then there’s Iran. Romney has said, “If I’m president, the Iranians will have no question but that I will be willing to take military action” to prevent Iran from getting a nuclear weapon. Eager to portray Obama as weak — despite the president’s success in imposing crippling economic sanctions on Tehran — the Republican candidate is boxing himself in to military action. There are even rumors that Romney might give a high-ranking foreign policy post to the hardline conservative John Bolton, the former U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, who is leading the charge for a U.S. attack on Iran.

Never mind that the U.S. military brass believes another Mideast war could unleash disaster, exacerbate the global economic crisis — and increase the chances that Iran will produce a nuclear weapon.

Romney’s campaign stop in Israel may win votes from evangelicals, but it won’t answer the key question about his foreign policy bona fides: Does he really believe the world is still frozen in the paradigm of a Cold War that ended 20 years ago?

Kansas University Chancellor Laurence Chalmers today critiYEARS cized the formal AGO sex-discrimination IN 1972 complaint filed against KU by the Women’s Equity Action League of Washington, D.C. Chalmers said that it was “unfortunate” that the organization had made a formal complaint “without any cognizance of the positive steps which have been made here during the past year.” He stated further that the charge would “complicate the work of our affirmative action board. ... We will be obliged to divert staff and funds to that review at a time when our limited resources could be used much more productively in the development and implementation of our own affirmative action programs.”

PUBLIC FORUM

Correct context Bad ideas To the editor: On one hand, I agree a little with Mr. Simons (Saturday Column, July 21), that there are some in the public sector who are “gullible.” On the other hand, however, if certain opinion writers/editors would quit taking things out of context there might be more truth to the story that is being told. Even Republican opinion writer Charles Krauthammer got it right on Saturday and used his criticism of the president in the correct context while our Saturday Column writer did not.

You chose not to write, like Krauthammer did, that President Obama was referring to the roads and bridges and police and fire protection for businesses that are provided by taxpayer money when he said that entrepreneurs “did not do this (develop/sustain their business) on their own.”

Maybe you have heard the quote “No man is an island”

by John Donne? We all need to remember that Donne quote more in our lives. There have been several political ads already where President Obama’s words were taken out of context to score political points by the opposing party. People need the whole truth, not snippets of it.

Ethical journalism requires that a journalist use the correct context in which to quote someone, but I see very little of that in some journalists’ writings.

Joleen Bechtel, Lawrence

To the editor: Trudy Rubin is a generally competent reporter on the Middle East. What she does not seem to understand is that the United States has no business overthrowing foreign governments. Syria, like Iraq, Saudi Arabia, the Emirates, Jordan and Lebanon, are lines on a map drawn up after World War I to divide up the Ottoman Empire, as well as reward the friends of T.E. Lawrence.

Syria is an authoritarian state controlled by the Baath Party. To an extent, like Iraq under Saddam Hussein, it has fairly secular policies. The “rebels” who are mostly Sunni and, to a great extent, foreign would install a “democracy” under their terms. Those terms sound like the terms in Libya, which now flies the alQaida flag. This is bad news for Christian, Shia, Alawite and Druse residents. We’re talking Sunni theocracy.

The “rebels” have rejected proposals that would include Assad in negotiations. They want recognition without question. And we are currently arming through Qatar.

Bad ideas are bad ideas are bad ideas.

Earl Haehl, Lawrence

Had enough To the editor: In Mr. Simons’ Saturday Column on July 21 he wonders about our gullibility this election season.

When over half of the vot-

ers chose Sen. Obama to lead this country in 2008, it was because we saw in him a depth and vision that would be able to bring together the factions in Congress and in this country. Guess what? On the very eve of the inauguration in January 2009, GOP pollster Frank Luntz met with GOP congressional leaders and made a pact to block every single one of President Obama’s coming proposals, even those that the GOP had originally supported!

President Obama is NOT a failure! He has accomplished much while facing almost insurmountable odds. People have better health care, veterans have more benefits, and the auto industry did not fail like Romney thought it should!

The GOP campaign touts Romney’s business experience, which is questionable at best in terms of tenure and accountability at Bain Capital, in addition to his off-shoring his profits in order to escape paying U.S. taxes. (Did Eisenhower run a business?) Contrary to Saturday’s column, it is the Romney campaign which uses falsehoods in ads, dragging in Hillary Clinton and Bob Schieffer without asking, and leaving out a whole sentence in the president’s speech about the importance of building a business with one’s own effort plus the help of others.

Will Kansans vote to increase the wealth of the already super-wealthy and jeopardize adequate funding for education and health care in Kansas? Not me. Enough is enough!

From the Lawrence Daily Journal-World for July 25, 1912: YEARS “The Booster AGO Club has been out IN 1912 of existence for some time but there is still a small amount of money in the treasury. Those who hold the money have decided that it should be spent and it shall be. The Lawrence Railway and Light Company is giving its poles a nice new coat of paint and it has been agreed that the Boosters may use the corner poles to paint the names of the streets on. The Boosters will pay for this.

There has long been agitation favoring the naming of the streets of Lawrence but nothing definite has ever been done. The signs were put up once but they didn’t last long and Lawrence hasn’t a street today that is marked with its name. These signs would be permanent and, painted in white on the black poles, would be clearly discernible for some distance. It is expected that this work will be done soon.”

KANSAS FOOTBALL COACH CHARLIE WEIS ANSWERS QUESTIONS during Big 12 media days on Tuesday in Dallas.

Weis witty, pointed at gathering

By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

DALLAS — After spending the offseason cobbling together a roster he believes can compete in the Big 12, first-year Kansas University football coach Charlie Weis is looking for more.

With just a week remaining before fall camp opens, Weis said Tuesday at Big 12 media days that he had explored the idea of adding a Penn State player or two that might now be available because of the powerful punishment levied against PSU in the wake of the Jerry Sandusky scandal.

As outlined in the NCAA’s ruling, any Penn State player interested in transferring is free to do so without having to sit out a season.

Such language almost seems tailor-made for Weis, whose first squad at KU is

Asked if he had glanced at the Penn State roster, Weis answered with a single word: Yes.

He then elaborated and, in doing so, demonstrated that he was not letting his potential to profit cloud his feelings about the tragedy at Penn State.

“First of all, you have to be respectful to (PSU) coach (Bill) O’Brien and the people who are trying to make good of a bad situation,” Weis said.

“But, at the same time, the rules are the rules. When the dust settles, I think there will be several players that entertain the thought of going somewhere else, especially the way it was presented to them. So I think that any program that didn’t do homework prior to this decision coming out was behind on that one.”

As was the case with the eight Big 12 football coaches who spoke before him this week, Weis shared his thoughts about the Penn State mess. Unlike the others, Weis got into it before he was asked.

“My feelings on that is that no one wins,” Weis said in his opening statement. “Everyone loses. There’s no winner in Please see WEIS, page 3B

OL Hawkinson recalls wooing Crist

KANSAS QB DAYNE CRIST MEETS THE PRESS Tuesday in Dallas.

DALLAS — Just after Kansas University offensive lineman Tanner Hawkinson answered the phone, teammate Trevor Marrongelli asked him for a favor.

“Dayne’s over here,” Hawkinson recalls Marrongelli saying. “Come over here and talk to him. He wants to meet the O-line.”

It was mid-December, and Dayne Crist, a former fivestar quarterback, was visiting KU to see if it would be the best option for his final year of eligibility.

Hawkinson quickly made his way over to Marrongelli’s

apartment, and KU offensive guard Duane Zlatnik showed up as well.

The three senior offensive linemen knew this was their best chance to make their pitch.

“We told him, ‘We’re in the same boat here. This is our last year.

It’s been a couple rough years here,’” Hawkinson said. “‘If you Hawkinson get here, maybe we could get some things going, start a good legacy here at KU.’” So did the recruiting job work?

“I think so,” Hawkinson said, nodding at Crist, who was sitting a few feet to his left at Tuesday’s Big 12 media days. “Obviously, he came here, so I guess we think so.”

Crist admitted Tuesday that December’s get-together was an important part of his visit.

KU coach Charlie Weis even made reference to it during his time on the stage at Big 12 media days.

“I think that when he came here, it really wasn’t about me selling him on me. Our relationship is wonderful,” Weis said of Crist. “It was whether or not he thought that he Please see HAWKINSON, page 3B

Former Lawrence High football coach Bill Freeman meets for coffee and/or tea and conversation with buddies in LeRoy every morning before heading to the library to catch up on some reading.

Freeman, 81, who stepped down as mayor of the Coffey County town three months ago after 21 years on the job, remains active in retirement despite being diagnosed with early stages of Alzheimer’s disease.

“I do have the coming of Alzheimer’s. It has slowed me down, but I made my mind up I will do as much as I used to,” Freeman said Sunday in a phone conversation.

Remember, the man who led Lawrence High to five Class 6A football titles (1979, 84, 86, 87 and 89, his last season at LHS) and two state track crowns (89, 90), is a survivor of quadruple heart bypass surgery and prostate cancer during his eventful, fulfilling life.

“It’s an awful thing. I lost my memory. I can’t remember some things,” said Freeman, who is on medication that can sap his energy at times. “They don’t really have a cure. Every so often I pick up the paper and it says something about Alzheimer’s. They have something they think is working.”

Freeman, who has some problems recalling numbers, still is able to drive and in fact made the hour-andchange trip to Lawrence by himself about a month ago to watch his son, Jeff, speak at the Dole Center. Jeff Freeman is a lobbyist for the National Rifle Association out of Fairfax, Va. He was in town speaking about that organization.

Bill vows to attend a Lawrence High football game this fall to support his former school and also to check out senior quarterback sensation Brad Strauss.

“I heard he’s really good,” Freeman said.

Freeman also continues to add to his arrowhead collection and has established scholarship funds in Lawrence, LeRoy, Burlington and Osawatomie.

Still, he’s slowing down a bit, evidenced by his voluntarily giving up the mayor’s job.

A longtime bank owner in LeRoy, Freeman served as mayor out of civic pride. He was known for placing his mayoral paychecks back into the city coffers, refusing pay for his services. He enjoyed helping run the town but Please see FREEMAN, page 3B

Saints’ Brees eager to face ’the unkown’ METAIRIE, LA. (AP) — Drew Brees says he’s “excited about the unknown� as the New Orleans Saints look to bounce back from the bounty scandal. “We don’t necessarily know what to expect,� Brees said Tuesday as the Saints reported for training camp. “With all this stuff swirling around us, in the end, all we can worry about is

what we can control. ... I know the type of guys we have. I know the coaches we have. I’m excited to watch it all come together.�

Brees said the Saints have the foundation in place “to weather any storm,� and that he’s “all about doing things that have never been done before.�

The Saints are the first NFL

team to have a head coach suspended at all, never mind a whole season, the punishment that commissioner Roger Goodell handed down to Sean Payton for his failure to put a stop to what the league has described as a program that paid cash bonuses for tackles that injured opponents.

Now the Saints will try not

only to move on without Payton, but try to do so well enough to become the first team to play a Super Bowl on its home field when the Superdome hosts the NFL’s championship in February. “I know what we’re made of. I know where we’ve been. I know where we want to go,� Brees said.

THURSDAY

By Tim Dahlberg Associated Press Sports Columnist

Banning Penn State from bowl games for four years won’t bring back the innocence Jerry Sandusky took from who knows how many young boys.

Taking football scholarships away and vacating wins over the past 14 years will do nothing to help them heal.

And the $60 million fine handed down Monday by the NCAA won’t be nearly enough to buy back Penn State’s selfrespect.

Sure, the punishment was extreme. It guts a proud program, and makes Saturdays in the fall a lot less pleasurable for alumni and the millions of fans who bought into the facade Joe Paterno created and believed the football factory wasn’t just about winning but “Success With Honor.�

But there’s only so much Mark Emmert — the suddenly empowered NCAA president — can do. There’s only so much anybody can do.

He can’t turn back the clock to a time before a sexual predator, who Paterno and others did nothing to stop, roamed the campus and raped young boys in the locker room. He can’t somehow wave a magic wand and declare that all is well again in State College.

And he can’t even begin to try to repair the damage that was done to so many lives because grown men were more interested in protecting themselves and their university than children who needed their protection. That the punishment was accepted so meekly and quickly by Penn State was an indication of how desperate the university is to find some way — any way — to begin crawling out from the morass created by a monster and his eager enablers. There is no moving forward without falling on the sword, and the people who replaced the Paterno lemmings at Penn State seem to have figured that out.

The release of the Freeh report didn’t just cement public opinion against the university; it sparked far greater outrage.

Ultimately, it gave Emmert the backing he needed in the byzantine NCAA — where power is but a fleeting thought — to suspend the usual punishment process and level the draconian sanctions that do everything but shut down the program Paterno ran with impunity.

Let Penn State supporters howl all they want at the prospect of years of watching their team get pummeled every time it takes the field.

What they forget when they say it is unfair to punish the program for the sins of Sandusky and others, is that the college community that will pay the price is the same one that for many years enjoyed all the benefits of a big-time college team.

Even the NCAA, which long ago abdicated control of college football to the television networks and big conferences, couldn’t mess this one up. The outcry was too strong and, for most people, no punishment could be too great. I found that out last week when I urged Emmert to hit Penn State with at least six years of sanctions, only to be innundated with emails from people who claimed even that was not nearly enough.

NEWLY ACQUIRED CHICAGO BULLS GUARD KIRK HINRICH speaks at a news conference Tuesday in Chicago. The Bulls signed former Kansas University standout Hinrich to a contract believed to be for two years and worth about $8 million.

Hinrich says he’s happy to be back with Bulls CHICAGO — The Chicago Bulls will be without one familiar face for much of the coming season, so they’re bringing back another to help fill the void.

Kirk Hinrich returned to the Bulls on Tuesday. The nine-year veteran rejoins the team that drafted him in 2003 and with which he played his first seven professional seasons. “We went into this offseason, it was probably our biggest priority to get a combo guard,� Bulls general manager Gar Forman said. “He knows his teammates. We just think it’s going to be a perfect fit not just for the coming year, but for the future.�

Hinrich likely will start at point guard for Chicago while star Derrick Rose rehabilitates from left knee surgery. The MVP of the 2010-11 season is expected to be out until at least January, though recent reports suggest that Rose may not return until March.

When Rose returns, Hinrich likely will become a key part of a revamped Chicago bench. “We know Derrick is going to take his time to come back and everybody is going to have to step up while he’s out,� Hinrich said. “I’m really looking forward to playing with him as well. I felt like toward the end of my last year here, we played really well together.�

Rose and Hinrich started 50 games during the 2009-10 season, during which Chicago went 31-19.

Now 31, Hinrich has been plagued by injuries since leaving the Bulls, missing a total of 28 games the last two seasons with Washington and Atlanta. Last season, he averaged a career low 6.6 points for the Hawks. “This offseason I’ve been working really hard and haven’t really felt any ill effects,� Hinrich said. “Knock on wood. I feel healthy and hopefully will be contributing to a very good team.�

Hinrich was a mainstay on the Bulls after being drafted in the first round from Kansas University in 2003. Chicago made the playoffs in five of his seven seasons with the club. With Rose on the rise in 2010, the Bulls appeared to be on the cusp of big things.

However, Hinrich was traded to Washington in a pre-draft trade in 2010 to clear room under the salary cap room for Chicago’s failed attempts to sign one of that year’s major free agents, such as LeBron James and Dwayne Wade. “It was disappointment,� Hinrich said. “I felt like we were at a place where we were finally ready to be good and I got traded. That’s how it is in this business.�

Hinrich joins a roster in transition. The capstrapped Bulls have lost several key parts from one of the league’s top benches this summer, including C.J. Watson, Ronnie Brewer, Kyle Korver and Omer Asik.

Catcher Kendall retires KANSAS CITY, MO. — Veteran catcher Jason Kendall, a three-time All-Star, has retired.

The 38-year-old Kendall announced his retirement Tuesday, less than a week after signing a minor-league contract with the Northwest Arkansas Naturals, the Double-A affiliate of the Kansas City Royals.

Kendall was a career .288 hitter in 2,085

games for Pittsburgh (1996-2004), Oakland (2005-07), Chicago Cubs (2007), Milwaukee (2008-09) and Kansas City (2010). He ranks fifth all-time in baseball history with 2,025 games caught.

COLLEGE BASKETBALL

OSU player convicted STILLWATER, OKLA. — A suspended Oklahoma State basketball player broke down in tears as he was convicted on charges that accused him of sexually assaulting two women, then turned to jurors and yelled “I didn’t do it.�

Darrell Williams was convicted Monday night of two counts of rape by instrumentation and one count of sexual battery. Jurors acquitted him on two other counts of rape by instrumentation.

Prosecutors accused the 22-year-old of groping the women and reaching inside their pants without their consent at a party in December 2010.

PRO BASKETBALL

Rockets add center Asik HOUSTON — The Houston Rockets have a true center again.

The Rockets announced Tuesday that Turkish big man Omer Asik is headed to Houston after the Chicago Bulls decided not to match their three-year, $25 million offer sheet.

The 7-foot Asik averaged 3.1 points, 5.3 rebounds and one block in 66 games last season.

He helped Turkey earn the silver medal at the 2010 FIBA world championship. Turkey didn’t qualify for the 2012 OIympics in London.

Wolves deal for Cunningham MINNEAPOLIS — The Minnesota Timberwolves have acquired forward Dante Cunningham from the Memphis Grizzlies in exchange for guard Wayne Ellington.

Allmendinger suspended LONDON — NASCAR has suspended driver A.J. Allmendinger indefinitely after a test of his backup urine sample came back positive Tuesday.

Allmendinger originally was suspended July 7 after failing a random drug test taken in late June. His backup “B’’ urine sample was tested Tuesday by Aegis Analytical Laboratories in Nashville, Tenn.

Mountaineers familiar with Big 12 DALLAS (AP) — West Virginia coach Dana Holgorsen is no stranger to the Big 12.

While the Mountaineers are league newcomers, Holgorsen was a Big 12 assistant for nine of 11 seasons before becoming a head coach. He was at Texas Tech for eight seasons and spent a year as Oklahoma State’s offensive coordinator.

So he has a pretty good idea what West Virginia faces going so far away to a new league after winning or sharing the Big East title six times the last nine years, including the last two.

“What we’re getting into is the same thing we got at home. And that didn’t necessarily exist in the conference that we were in last year,” Holgorsen said Tuesday. “The culture is there. The sup-

that situation. So I prefer not to take any further than that.”

That was the last time Tuesday that Weis’ words carried any kind of heavyhearted tone. From that point on, Weis, who wore a dark suit with a blue tie and a Jayhawk pin on his jacket, was the jovial, sarcastic, honest and cunning coach he has shown himself to be since taking over the KU program last December. It’s something his new players have come to expect, and something many believe will expedite the rebuilding process at Kansas.

“Same guy he was when he called me on the phone the first time in high school,” senior quarterback Dayne Crist said.

“He’s always got bounce in his step. He’s always got a plan.”

If there were any difference in Weis’ demeanor Tuesday, senior co-captain Toben Opurum said was his coach’s tone.

“He was a lot nicer today than he usually is,” Opurum said.

Could that be chalked

could come in here and be competitive or not.

“So he spent the whole time with the offensive line. Shows you he’s a very intelligent young man because he wanted to know whether or not he thought that the offensive line would give him an opportunity.”

Crist said the informal gathering — the four men sat on couches and spoke for more than two hours — left a big impression.

“I feel very comfortable with those guys,” Crist said. “Those are guys that I think can help us win.”

If KU has one reason for optimism heading into 2012, it might just be

doesn’t feel sorry for himself that he thought it necessary to relinquish the post.

“Millions of people are losing their memory, not just one but a lot of people,” Freeman said of Alzheimer’s victims.

“I’m (living) on the edge,” he added with a laugh.

Those who know Freeman from his Lawrence days believe the coach will handle this disease as well as it can be handled.

“Coach Freeman is a fighter. He always has been,” said Free State

WEST VIRGINIA QUARTERBACK GENO SMITH, LEFT, ANSWERS QUESTIONS Tuesday at Big 12 media days in Dallas

behind Oklahoma, which won seven Big 12 titles over 11 seasons before Oklahoma State claimed its first crown last season.

The Big 12 wrapped up its two-day media session Tuesday with Baylor, Kansas, Texas and Oklahoma State.

Baylor no longer has Heisman Trophy winner Robert Griffin III, the second overall pick by the Washington Redskins after bypassing his senior season. Oklahoma State is depending on a true freshman to replace Brandon Weeden and Texas goes into the season with sophomore David Ash and junior Case McCoy still competing to be the starting quarterback.

When Baylor coach Art Briles was asked about replacing Griffin, his immediate retort was, “How do you adjust to not hav-

port’s there. The fan base is there. We’re going to fill up our stadium. Our team is used to winning, and that exists at the other nine universities in the Big 12 as well.”

What does he feel is the best way to explain it

to West Virginia fans and people in the Big 12?

“What exists in the Big 12 exists in Morgantown, West Virginia, as well,” he said.

In the preseason media poll, the Mountaineers are picked to finish second

up to Weis’ wife, Maura, being in Dallas with him?

“That might be why,” Opurum said.

Following their coach’s lead, the Jayhawks dressed more sharply, talked more proudly and captured more attention at this year’s media days than in previous years. It was a little weird coming from a program that had just endured two of the worst seasons in school history.

Then again, it was exactly what is expected from a club led by Weis.

Ever the realist, Weis cautioned about reading too much into anything that was said or gleaned from this week, even while admitting that the outside world now seems to have a much different opinion about KU football today than it did eight months ago.

“Yeah, they do,” Weis said. “But we haven’t played a game yet. I brought some credibility, (defensive coordinator Dave) Campo brought some credibility, Dayne brought some credibility.

But it still comes down to playing the game.”

While Tuesday’s funny stories, free smiles and smooth confidence changed the way the Jayhawks were treated at

media day, that internal optimism did little to alter the end-all, be-all of where the Jayhawks stand in the world of college football.

Weis was fine with that.

“I know where we are in this whole pecking order,” he said. “I know that everyone sees, ‘Here’s the good teams,’ and then they work their way down to Kansas at the bottom. But we’re not gonna be one of those teams where you’re just gonna roll into Lawrence and say, ‘OK, we got an easy W, let’s go whup up on the Jayhawks and go on to the next one.’”

From being on top of the world after Super Bowl victories to being under an intense microscope at Notre Dame, Weis has been in just about every conceivable situation, many of them much bigger than Big 12 media days.

But he’s at Kansas now, and, even though his image might have undergone a transformation, Weis is not about to scrap the way he does business.

“You might say the expectations are different,” Weis said. “But everyone wants the same thing.”

The Jayhawks are scheduled to report to camp a week from today, and fall practice will begin Thursday.

the offensive line, which returns four players with starting experience: Hawkinson, Marrongelli, Zlatnik and Riley Spencer.

Gavin Howard, the slated starter at right guard, also played in 10 games a season ago.

“We’ve got some good talent up front,” Hawkinson said, “with some good experience as well.”

The most experienced, though, is Hawkinson, who begins his fifth year in the program with his third coach.

The McPherson native came to KU thinking he was going to spend his whole career as a tight end before getting moved to defensive end and then to offensive tackle during his red-shirt freshman season.

This will be Hawkinson’s fourth straight

year starting on the line, though KU has averaged just 3.3 victories per year during that stint.

“It’s definitely been an up-and-down career, but I wouldn’t trade it in for anything else, just because I’ve learned a lot of experiences, met a lot of people,” Hawkinson said.

“It’s definitely built me as a football player and also as a person.”

Hawkinson said there were many times in the past few seasons when he and some of his teammates could have given up.

“I feel like our team as a whole, from week to week, just kept on trucking,” Hawkinson said. “I think that built us a lot.

That’s going to prepare us great for this year, just facing through all that adversity.”

Ready to report All but two of KU’s newcomers have made it to Lawrence and are ready to report to camp Wednesday. Although Weis did not name the two who are not in town, a quick glance revealed that defensive linemen Ty McKinney and Jordan Tavai were the two players who had not yet made it.

The reason? Both have been busy finishing classes.

Despite their absence, which Weis said could extend past next week, both remain committed to Kansas.

“They’re in place to be done on the 29th, but it might take another week or two,” Weis said. “But it’s not because they’re not gonna be here. We’re at the mercy of the junior colleges. If I’m betting a dollar, I’m betting against it.”

Weis added that their late arrival would not do anything to change what’s expected.

“Oh, no, they’ll be playing,” he said.

football coach Bob Lisher, who played lineman for Freeman and served as an assistant coach on Freeman’s LHS staff.

“He’s always taken things straight on. Generally he wins,” Lisher added.

Freeman coached NFL players Derrick Jensen and Lynn Dickey at Osawatomie High (Jensen drove all the way from Florida to attend a get-together for his former coach a few weeks ago in LeRoy) and a plethora of standouts at LHS including Keith DeLong, Lance Flachsbarth, Mark Henderson and Jeff Wright. “(He) is one of the most competive guys I’ve ever been around,” Lisher said.

“He has a desire to win like

nobody I’ve ever seen. He would press us as coaches, press the kids to give them success. He’s one of the best motivators I’ve been around. He could turn it off and be one of the greatest guys ever. Ron (Commons, LHS AD) and I would go quail (hunting) with him all the time. During the season he was so intense sometimes it was hard to be around him. After the season you loved being with him.”

Freeman said his biggest thrill in coaching was “watching a student or athlete have success ... when they’d come up to me later in life to tell me they were glad I was tough on them. It made me proud. I knew then I’d help make a difference.”

Freeman, who was named to the Kansas State High School Activities Association Hall of Fame a few years ago but has not yet been selected for the Kansas Sports Hall of Fame in Wichita, would tell his players that football “is like life. There are many disappointments, but if you have a disappointment you pick yourself up and go on.”

He said he has especially fond memories of his 16 seasons as LHS coach.

“Not a day goes by I don’t think of something good that happened in Lawrence,” Freeman said.

Here’s a brief Q and A with Freeman conducted by the Journal-World on Sunday night. ...

Q: What do you think

ing the best player football in the United States of America last year at the collegiate level?”

He later added that the Bears still expect to be a better team a year after matching a school record with 10 wins, including a six-game winning streak to end the season.

As for Ash and McCoy at Texas, coach Mack Brown said they came out of spring drills even.

“Last year at this time I sat here and we had four (options). And there was a lot of concern about trying to get four guys prepared for a new offense. ...

It was all over the place,” Brown said. “What we have done now, we have two older guys that have been through a year with Bryan Harsin’s and Major Applewhite’s offense.

They both won significant games.”

MATT TAIT’S KU NOTEBOOK Position changes This week’s revealing of the Kansas University football media guide provided a glimpse at a couple of position changes and player departures that had not previously been reported.

Perhaps the biggest of them all was Piscataway, N.J., freshman Tevin Shaw’s being listed as a safety instead of a running back. Tuesday, coach Charlie Weis explained how Shaw landed on defense.

“I told him that he would start fairly far down on the running-back depth chart, but he would start very high up on the safety depth chart,” Weis said.

“So I asked him where he’d rather play. He’s one of those rare guys who’s been an all-state player at both positions. So I gave him the choice. I didn’t move him.”

Other noteworthy changes include: wide receiver Erick McGriff’s no longer being part of the team and junior Randall Dent’s moving from defensive line to offensive line.

Two-way players Seniors Toben Opurum and Duane Zlatnik drew mention as possible two-way players. But Weis stopped short of saying either would play both offense and defense.

“Don’t be surprised on goal-line and short-yardage situations to see him on offense,” Weis said of Opurum. “And don’t be surprised to see Duane Zlatnik playing an interior guy on goal-line defense, either. You have to wait until you have the bodies so you can do some of this stuff, but we’ll wait and see how it goes.”

Weis said he hadn’t considered shifting Opurum back to running back.

“He’s one of our better defensive players,” he said.

“I don’t need a running back.

I need defensive linemen.”

Opurum, remember, started his KU career as a running back and was recruited by Weis to Notre Dame as a fullback. As for Zlatnik, he’s known as one of the strongest guys on the team.

Royals down Angels, 4-1 ANAHEIM, CALIF. (AP) — Will Smith pitched twohit ball over seven innings in the longest of his five major-league starts, Lorenzo Cain hit a two-run homer in the first, and the Kansas City Royals beat the Los Angeles Angels, 4-1, on Tuesday night.

Smith (2-3) allowed a run, struck out four and walked four against the club that drafted him in 2007 and traded him to Kansas City in 2010.

The only hits against the 23-year-old left-hander came in the first inning — a line-drive single through the box by Torii Hunter and an RBI single by Mark Trumbo that followed a walk to Albert Pujols.

Jonathan Broxton allowed two singles during a scoreless ninth for his 23rd save in 27 chances.

Garrett Richards (3-2) gave up four runs, five hits and three walks in five innings. The 24-year-old right-hander is trying to secure a spot in the rotation.

Late Monday, pinchhitter Kendrys Morales delivered a rare three-run single in the eighth inning, helping the Angels beat the Royals, 6-3.

Alberto Callaspo, who spent two-plus seasons with the Royals, started the tiebreaking rally with a two-out single against reliever Greg Holland (43). Maicer Izturis bounced a double over the head of first baseman Eric Hosmer and down the line.

Mizzou chatter Although the absence of Missouri and Texas A&M went largely unnoticed this week, a couple of Jayhawks were asked about not seeing their former Border War rivals around the halls of the Westin this week.

“I wouldn’t say we miss them,” Opurum said of Mizzou. “But I would like to have an opportunity to play them again, to keep them quiet.”

of the Penn State scandal and Joe Paterno’s involvement?

A: He ignored things that came up. If he’d gone in and cleaned house and acted on things (that happened), there wouldn’t be this (situation). It’s really too bad for everybody.

Q: Who are some college coaches you respected?

A: There are a lot of good ones. Lou Holtz was a character. He was a very good coach. Coach Osborne (Tom, Nebraska) was quiet (personality wise). He did a great job at Nebraska.

Q: What do you think of being called a coaching legend?

A: We had great kids and great assistants. Our

teams were physical and we won a lot of games.

We had a lot of fun. We enjoyed what we were doing. I had my ways. I hope I had something to do with what we did (compile 13438 record at LHS).

Q: Are you concerned with concussions? Will football be around in 100 years?

A: Yes. But it is a concern. There’s something to it. We never had anything in football where people would come back affected by it, which is happening today.

Q: Do you still follow the game of football?

A: I watch pro, but I like high school and college.

I’ve always followed high school and college (more than NFL).

AMERICAN LEAGUE ROUNDUP

Indians edge past Tigers Minnesota

The Associated Press

Indians 3, Tigers 2 CLEVELAND — Aaron Cunningham bunted home the go-ahead run with a suicide squeeze as Cleveland beat Detroit, moving within three games of the AL Central-leading Tigers and White Sox on Tuesday night.

Travis Hafner tripled with one out in the seventh inning off Doug Fister (4-7), and Lou Marson ran for him.

Marson took off running as Cunningham, a defensive replacement hitting .175, dropped a bunt in front of the plate. Fister quickly got the ball and tried to shovel it to catcher Alex Avila. It rolled away, Marson scored, and Cunningham took second on the error.

Nationals halt Dickey’s streak The Associated Press

Nationals 5, Mets 2 NEW YORK — Adam LaRoche and Washington handed R.A. Dickey his first loss in three months, beating New York behind Gio Gonzalez’s seven crisp innings.

LaRoche hit a tiebreaking homer, and Gonzalez (13-5) gave up only two singles in a rematch of All-Star pitchers, five days after New York hit him hard to back Dickey during his 13th win. This time, it went the other way.

Dickey (13-2) allowed five consecutive hits in the sixth, ending his 11game winning streak, as the Mets lost their fifth straight and 11th in 12 games. Their lone victory since July 7 was Dickey’s 9-5 win over Gonzalez last Thursday in Washington.

If the idea of cooking with children — young children — gives you the chills, you’re not alone.

It’s a common feeling among anyone who has spent time cleaning up after a two-year-old eats lunch.

L AWRENCE J OURNAL -W ORLD

U.S. men rout Spain BARCELONA, SPAIN (AP) — Gold medal at stake or nothing at all, the U.S. Olympic basketball team was bringing its best Tuesday.

Being back on the Dream Team’s turf required it.

Carmelo Anthony came off the bench to score 23 of his 27 points in the first half, and the Americans beat Spain 100-78 in a rematch of the gold-medal game — and possible preview of the next one.

LeBron James added 25 and Kevin Durant had 13, including 10 in the first 31⠄2 minutes of the third quarter to help the U.S. break open the teams’ final exhibition game before heading to London. “We knew that this was a big game,� U.S. guard Chris Paul said. “When Coach K talked to us, he told us this was probably the biggest game here in Barcelona since the ‘92 team was here, so we ap-

proached it like that and it was a good win for us.�

The teams played a memorable gold-medal game four years ago, the Americans pulling away for a 118-107 victory after leading by only four points with under 21â „2 minutes left.

This one turned out

much easier once the U.S. controlled the final three quarters. “It was a good test for us tonight, but the exhibition games are over, the friendlies are over and we look forward to the real challenge of going to London,� James said.

Pau Gasol scored 19 points, and Oklahoma City forward Serge Ibaka, a native of the Republic of Congo who became a Spanish national last year, had 16.

Both teams have been weakened by injuries, with the U.S. missing Dwyane Wade, Dwight Howard and Chris Bosh, all key contributors in Beijing, along with Derrick Rose. The Spaniards are without point guard Ricky Rubio, and All-Star center Marc Gasol, Juan Carlos Navarro and Rudy Fernandez have battled injuries this year.

They’re still the best two teams in the world and favored to meet again

in the Aug. 12 gold-medal game. Spain would have a different look, as Marc Gasol was held out of this one while recovering from a left shoulder injury and backup point guard Sergio Rodriguez also sat out.

It may not matter if the Americans play like this in the games that count.

Spain’s players said Monday that while they would try to win this tuneup, the bigger priority was preparing for London. The Americans responded that the Spaniards, playing in front of their home fans, would be compelled to go all out in hopes of a victory.

Spain seemed to be playing for real, but was simply overmatched and the Americans eventually ran away from them. “Well, it was definitely a game that we would have loved to play better as a team,� Gasol said. “We made too many mistakes which they capitalized and they played their game.�

NBC poised for crazy amount of coverage NEW YORK (AP) — The Summer Olympics opening ceremony takes place Friday, but the first of 5,535 hours that NBC is showing of the games begins today with qualifying rounds in women’s soccer. With so many different options, viewers need a road map to make sense of it all.

NBC is promising that every competition in London will be available to U.S. consumers live, with the bulk of them seen online.

The centerpiece of coverage will be NBC’s prime-time, 8 p.m. to midnight on most evenings,

with Bob Costas as host.

Given the time difference with England, all of the events will be shown on a tape-delayed basis, although particularly rabid fans will have the opportunity to see each of these events online during the day.

Costas will give people an overview of the day’s big stories. But the primetime package is not designed to offer a complete picture of the games. As in the past, NBC will be heavy on personal stories to make non-sports fans interested in strangers they will see competing in sports they rarely follow

— with the obvious exception of known personalities like Michael Phelps.

And if you want badminton or boxing, you’ll have to turn elsewhere: the prime-time hours are generally concentrated on the swimming, diving, gymnastics and track and field competitions.

New to NBC this year is the amount of coverage presented during the business day, starting at 10 a.m. following the “Today� show.

The cable and satellite networks all avoid primetime hours to funnel those viewers into NBC. Except for those hours and the

overnight in London, a viewer could expect to see competition on NBC and cable the rest of the day.

The NBC Sports Network, for example, is on the air from 3 a.m. to 6 p.m. CT on Sunday, the second full day of the competition. The cable and satellite outfit did not exist during the last Olympics and will show 292 hours of competition this year. It is being positioned as the home of U.S. team sports. The centerpiece of Sunday’s coverage, for example, is the U.S. men’s basketball team’s game against France.

While producers want

the NBC Sports Network to form an identity as a home of U.S. team sports, the truth is that NBC, NBC Sports and MSNBC are airing so much competition that they will lack clearly focused identities.

The best way to keep track of their daytime schedules is to keep checking NBCOlympics.com.

As it has in the past, the CNBC business network is positioned as the home of Olympic boxing, including women’s boxing for the first time.

The competition will be focused weekdays on the hours between the close of financial markets

and the beginning of TV prime-time.

Between July 28 and Aug. 3, Bravo will air the Olympics tennis competition.

The amount of hours available to Spanishspeaking viewers through Telemundo are also being sharply increased, and the network promises a broader look at the range of competitions than it has in the past. Still, swimming, basketball and soccer will be the sports the network concentrates upon.

With all that coverage on television, NBC will be offering even more online.

Chiefs getting healthy as training camp nears KANSAS CITY, MO. (AP) — Take a look back at the roster the Chiefs trotted out for their season finale last year, and then slide it up next to the roster they’re expected to field this season.

There may be no team in the NFL that will enjoy such an influx of talented players.

Of course, most of them aren’t really newcomers.

It just feels that way.

All-Pro running back Jamaal Charles will be back to carry the ball.

Pro Bowl quarterback Matt Cassel will be back throwing it, and tight end Tony Moeaki catching it.

Another former Pro Bowl pick, safety Eric Berry, will be helping to defend the other end of the field, while veteran right tackle Eric Winston leads a collection of freeagent upgrades across the starting lineup.

Kansas City should look nothing like the team that finished last season, and as far as coach Romeo Crennel is concerned, there’s nothing wrong with that.

“I feel like we’ve made progress during the offseason. I’m encouraged by the installation of the offense, the installation of special teams and defensively, we looked at different things that we don’t normally do. So, we got good exposure there,” Crennel said. “I saw some players improve as we went through this. Now we’ll put on the pads, and we’ll see what they really can do.”

That’s where Crennel will find out whether everybody is actually up to speed.

Charles, Berry and Moeaki became forever linked last season when they went down in consecutive weeks to seasonending torn ligaments in their left knees. All of them participated to some extent in the offseason program, but they didn’t take part in any of the contact drills.

Charles was coming off a breakout season in which he ran for more than 1,400 yards, but he went down in Week 2 against Detroit. That followed the loss of Berry in last season’s opener and Moeaki in the Chiefs’ preseason finale against Green Bay. All three players have said they’ll be ready when camp opens Friday in St. Joseph, Mo. “I’m doing great. I know I’m ready to play,” said Charles, who was still awaiting clearance at the end of the offseason program. “Even though we were doing minicamp and all that, just getting my body rested up so when real training camp starts up, it’ll be ready to go.”

KANSAS CITY CHIEFS COACH ROMEO CRENNEL, right, talks with wide receiver Jamar Newsome during NFL rookie minicamp May 11 in Kansas City, Mo. Cassel was able to participate fully in the offseason program after a season-ending injury to the thumb on his throwing hand. That should settle a quarterback situation that turned into a disaster — Tyler Palko started several games — and in part sent the season spiraling out of control.

Things got so bad that coach Todd Haley was fired in December.

“I think your approach is always trying to come back and work hard each and every day, like I have in the past,” said Cassel, who along with the rest of the offense spent the offseason trying to learn the system run by new offensive coordinator Brian Daboll.

“Then again, every team is different every single year, so it’s building a new rapport, new relationships with these receivers, getting familiar with your new personnel that you have out there — guys like Peyton Hillis and Kevin Boss,” Cassel said, “and then just continuing to work.”

Cassel believes that the Chiefs have most of the offense in place as they head into training camp, though it’s impossible to say whether wide receiver Dwayne Bowe will be up to speed.

Cassel’s top target skipped the entire offseason program while refusing to sign his franchise tender, which is worth about $9.4 million. Bowe would like a long-term deal, but the Chiefs have been reluctant — or unable — to

sign a player who has put up massive numbers the past few years but who also carries plenty of baggage into the locker room.

Even with the Chiefs’ revolving door behind center last season, Bowe still managed to catch 81 passes for 1,159 yards and five touchdowns — his third 1,000-yard season in four years.

“Well, you like to have your good players with you because every year you have to develop a new team chemistry,” Crennel said, “so he’s missing this opportunity to grow and develop with his teammates.

There is nothing that I can do about that.”

Bowe has laid low throughout the offseason, but in at least one interview said that he planned to be on the field when training camp finally starts about an hour’s drive north of Kansas City.

“It’s just the nature of the beast that we’re dealing with,” Crennel said.

“I think that he will be here eventually. When he gets here, we’ll have to try to catch him up, and he’ll have to work at it to get up to speed.

Then we’ll see if he can help us at that time.”

In the meantime, the Chiefs will focus on all those players finally returning to the field.

“It won’t be long,” Crennel said. “It’s all the way live, and it’s for real.

They have to understand that and everybody has to put their best foot forward to give us the best chance.”

Heat, drought make for more potent produce

By Dinesh Ramde Associated Press

MILWAUKEE — Chef Dan Jacobs expected his recent batch of jalapeño poppers to be tame because peppers grown at this time of the year are generally mild. But he quickly discovered that his spicy appetizer carried an unexpected fire.

“Wow, those things are no joke. They are hot,” said Jacobs, the top chef at Roots Restaurant and Cellar in Milwaukee. “At this time of year, they shouldn’t be this hot. But the warm weather, the no rain, that’s going to cause that.”

Temperatures above 100 degrees and droughtlike conditions have baked parts of the upper Midwest for weeks, taking a severe toll on corn and soybeans. But the heat brought an expected benefit for peppers and other crops: Their flavors became unusually concentrated, producing some of the most potent-tasting produce in years.

In peppers, that means the difference between a lightly tingling tongue and heavily watery eyes. The effect comes from alkaloids, the substance that binds to heat receptors on the tongue.

“Peppers really like hot weather,” said Irwin Goldman, a horticulture professor at the University of Wisconsin-Madison.

“When it’s dry and hot outside, you’ll get a higher concentration of alkaloids.”

The same phenomenon also happens in onions, garlic and certain fruits, he said.

Scientists say a pepper’s hotness is generally determined by genetics, although environment can

play a role. Long hot days cause peppers to produce more capsaicin, the specific alkaloid that delivers the spicy kick.

The absence of water also has an effect. The higher a vegetable’s water content, the larger and juicier it is, but the more diluted the flavor.

Farmers say they’ve noticed a taste difference in several of their crops over the past month or so. Cindy Chapman, who raises corn, beets and other vegetables, said she noticed that the radishes she harvested earlier in the year were especially flavorful.

“They were much hotter, really sharp,” said Chapman, a farmer in East Troy. “Some people won’t eat them when they’re that sharp, and then there are other people who love the stronger flavor.”

Sweet melons This kind of weather can also cause melons to be especially sweet, said Jim Nienhuis, who also teaches horticulture at UW-Madison.

Cantaloupes originated in the Middle East, and watermelons came from the deserts of Africa, so they’ve been thriving.

“Hot, dry conditions result in higher rates of photosynthesis, leading to higher concentrations of fruit sugars,” he said in an email.

Bruce Sherman, executive chef at the North Pond Restaurant in Chicago, has noticed. His restaurant gets its fruits and vegetables from farms in Illinois, Indiana, Michigan and Wisconsin, and his recent batches of cantaloupes and cucumbers have been exceptionally sweet.

Sherman said he might use cantaloupe in a melon

gazpacho or a cucumbermelon-corn salad.

“We might not dress it as heavily if the integral flavor is better by itself,” he said.

He said he hadn’t gotten any unusually spicy peppers yet, although one supplier told him that her jalapeños and Serrano peppers were twice as hot as usual.

While fruits and vegetables with lower water concentrations can have a sharpened taste, they’ll also generally be less juicy. David Witte, a West Bend farmer, said that could be good or bad.

“One person might like that there’s more flavor but less juice, and the person next to him might like Dinesh Ramde/AP Photo a tomato that you cut into and see the juice come CHEF DAN JACOBS HOLDS A PLATE OF SHISHITO PEPPERS at Roots Restaurant and Cellar in Milwaukee.

Blueberry muffins or pancakes?

Recipe combines best of both

By J.M. Hirsch AP Food Editor

What do you do when you are hankering for blueberry muffins, but don’t have a muffin pan handy?

Or maybe you just don’t feel like cranking up the oven on a hot summer day.

During a recent vacation (sans muffin pan) I discovered that you cook them in a skillet, using the muffin batter the same as you would pancake batter.

And the results are outstanding.

Why not just make blueberry pancakes? To answer that, we need to look at the differences between pancake and muffin batters. Though recipes will vary, most pancake and muffin recipes call for equal amounts of flour and eggs. But while pancakes call for more liquid, muffins get more (often way more) sugar, fat and baking powder.

That’s why muffins are dense and cake-like, while pancakes are light and fluffy.

So while muffin batter cooked in a skillet may resemble a pancake, the taste is all muffin. I even top the muffins with a blend of cinnamon-sugar (just as you would a muffin); this caramelizes beautifully when you flip them.

And while muffins can take half an hour to bake, these pancake-style muffins cook up in just minutes.

Also, this recipe works just as well with white whole-wheat flour as with all-purpose flour, so substitute equally if you want a whole-grain option.

Town Talk Restaurant Roundup ————

Word on the street from our city reporter’s blog A Chipotle-style Indian restaurant in the 900 block of Massachusetts Street? Give it time.

The tip we passed along last week that an Indian restaurant was set to go into the vacant building at 918 Mass. was a good one.

Lawrence resident Rasesh Patel confirmed to me that he has signed a deal to open up an as-yet-unnamed Indian restaurant in the building, which used to house the funky gift shop Beyond the Door.

Patel, though, said his Indian restaurant may be a bit different from what Lawrence residents have come to expect. For one, it won’t be a buffet. Instead, he said it will be a fast-casual concept, which led him to call it kind of like Chipotle but for Indian food.

“I have done a lot of research and this is the new phase Indian restaurants are headed,” Patel said. “It is not so much the buffet for lunch anymore.”

The menu will have a large offering of both vegetarian and non-vegetarian items, and also will include several daily specials and seasonal dishes.

Patel also said his restaurant will have a greater emphasis on bar and liquor service than many other Indian restaurants. The establishment will have a full bar featuring both American and Indian offerings. He said he’s currently working with liquor distributors to try to get about eight different Indian beers to offer, including Haywards 5000, Taj Mahal, and Kingfisher.

(Who said it was too hot to fish? I think I’ll tell my wife I’m going Kingfishing tonight.)

Look for the restaurant to open by the first week of September.

My understanding is that Doug Compton is close to signing a deal for a new wine bar to occupy the one piece of vacant space he has in his 901 building at Ninth and New Hampshire.

What I hear is that the owner of an existing

Town Talk

Chad Lawhorn clawhorn@ljworld.com

downtown eatery is planning to open the wine bar in conjunction with an area caterer. I’ve heard the name of the restaurant owner, but I am waiting to get in touch with him.

As far as the space goes, it will be in the northwest corner of the building, along the Ninth Street side. The space has a little outdoor seating area.

Pop-up barbecue — both my cholesterol and my excitement levels have popped up over the thought. Soon, the idea of pop-up barbecue won’t just be a thought in Lawrence.

The Lawrence-based catering company Mr. Bacon BBQ soon will launch a new concept: the occasional restaurant.

Jeff Frye, an owner of Mr. Bacon BBQ, has leased space at 846 Ill. in the same little commercial center that houses Rick’s Place.

Frye primarily will use the space for his commercial kitchen for his catering business. But periodically — perhaps one to two times a week during some parts of the year — Frye is going to host “pop-up barbecue” events. That simply involves smoking a bunch of meat, fixing a bunch of sides, throwing open the front door of the business and telling people to come get it while it lasts.

Frye said he has been serving BBQ on a semiregular basis at the Cottin’s Farmers’ Markets on Thursday nights. Plus, the business periodically serves its barbecue at Conroy’s Pub on West

Sixth Street. Between the two, Mr. Bacon has developed a good following.

But Frye said he’s not ready to commit to a fulltime restaurant because that likely would take away from his catering business, which also has been robust.

He said the idea for pop-up barbecue came to him as he saw how many people were following his business on Facebook and Twitter. The plan is to announce the dates of the pop-up barbecue events at least a couple of days ahead of time on those social media platforms. Frye said food trucks in larger cities have had success with that type of model. In addition to the social media promotion, Frye said he also plans to just put out a sandwich board to alert folks passing by.

“We’re going to use both the high-tech and the lowtech option,” Frye said.

Expect to see signs out for most KU home football games. Frye said he hopes to have his first pop-up barbecue event on Aug. 1, the date students traditionally start moving into apartments around town.

“I figure the neighborhood is going to be crazy with people who haven’t unpacked their kitchens yet,” Frye said. (If they are anything like I was in college, that may still may be the case a couple of months from now.)

As for the barbecue, don’t let the name fool you into thinking it all centers on bacon. According to the company’s website, Mr. Bacon is actually the name of the family’s dog.

But the barbecue does look like it will have a unique flair. Frye said he tries to focus on a little more of an “elevated barbecue or culinary-inspired barbecue.” That includes a brisket with an espresso-based rub in a smoked garlic sauce and even a smoked meatloaf dish.

Bakers CONTINUED FROM PAGE 10B

trained in food science, change each year and typically come from outside the county.

This year’s open baking competition is coming up next week — entries are due Monday, with judging the following morning.

About 40 people typically enter the contest, each bringing multiple items. But Johnson would like to see that number grow.

“Home-baked, quality items are something that is going to be a lost art if we don’t keep up this tradition,” she said. “It’s a skill to learn how to bake quality products.”

Bieber has been practicing more years than most — she’s 80, and she’s been baking pies since she was about 8.

She grew up on a ranch in western Kansas, where she was the oldest of five siblings. Her mother didn’t particularly like baking so she left most of it to Bieber.

“I’ve been doing it for a long, long time,” Bieber said. “I think it’s just trial and error.”

Bieber said she’d probably enter a pie or two in the President’s Pie Baking Contest this year but not the open contest as she has in years past. She’s had some health problems, she said, so it depends on how much energy she has.

If not as much as she used to, Bieber still bakes pie for family — her husband, David, is always in the kitchen “looking for a little crumb of something,” she said — and for her church, where she used to be the funeral meal coordinator.

Many of the younger ladies turned to box-mix cakes for the grieving families, but Bieber kept

up her handmade pies.

Berkowitz didn’t start “Some people think it’s too much work, but I out great at baking, either.

Berkowitz said that afdon’t,” she said. “I love to ter she and her husband bake.”

Fully-loaded salad doesn’t need fat to be satisfying

Salads can be a great way to pile on the vegetables, not to mention serve as a fine canvas for showing off summer’s bounty.

Agnew’s first foray into bread-baking was a far cry from the basil and chive bagels that won the champion ribbon at last year’s fair.

Agnew, a stay-at-home father of two, started baking to pass time between feedings and diaper changings after his first child was born. He baked a lot of quick breads, began to realize he was “going through more butter and sugar than a healthy person should,” then decided to try yeast breads instead.

His initial results, he said, were more like adobe bricks than loaves of bread.

Things began looking up after Agnew’s wife bought him an explanatory cookbook, Peter Reinhart’s “The Bread Baker’s Apprentice.”

“Once I had the mechanics down and understood more of how things worked, I just kept playing around,” Agnew said.

Agnew sold bagels at the farmers’ market for a couple years but said preparing that many by hand every week began to do a number on his tendons.

He now bakes on a more occasional basis.

Agnew has only entered the open foods contest twice. In his first year, 2010, his rosemary onion bagels nabbed a reserve champion ribbon. Last year, those basil and chive bagels took the top prize.

“That was really, really cool,” Agnew said, but he doesn’t feel pressure to defend his title. He doesn’t think he’ll enter this year.

“I couldn’t think of a flavor that just called out to be entered,” he said. “I would rather wait another year and think for months, ‘This flavor would be perfect.’”

He is, however, busy helping work on fair projects with his 10-yearold daughter, Parvaneh Karch-Agnew, who has won ribbons for her own baking.

She spent a day as an apprentice with a bread-baking friend, then took some sourdough starter home to try on her own. For a month or more, she said, everything she made was flat and “dreadful.” Another month or so later, she ran into that friend’s husband at the store, and he asked, “By the way, did my wife remember to tell you that starter was dead?”

Berkowitz said she bought a yeast bread cookbook and “never looked back.”

She bakes almost every Friday and Sunday for her own household and some family and friends. She’s entered the fair’s open foods contest more than 20 years, specializing in breads and cakes. Winning is nice — her whole wheat bread won reserve champion last year, and she’s even won the state fair’s sweepstakes for cakes — but she said she most enjoys the camaraderie of other home cooks who participate.

“If it’s about the competition — and that’s all it is — then that’s not fun,” she said.

Berkowitz also enjoys sharing her skills with others. She teaches baking classes at a Hy-Vee in Topeka, where she tells students, “Everybody can do this.”

After her last bread class, Berkowitz got a note in the mail from a woman who said she took what she’d learned, went home and baked a loaf of challah for her husband.

“She just felt so empowered that she could do this,” Berkowitz said, “and that made me feel wonderful.”

Berkowitz said her top baking tips are to read the recipe thoroughly, use good fresh ingredients and enjoy what you’re doing.

“If you don’t enjoy what you’re doing, she said, “it’s going to show up in how it turns out.”

In a large skillet, warm the olive oil over medium heat, and add the garlic and onion.

When it’s ready, add most of the can of tomato paste and

entries. After judging, pies are sliced and sold at the 4-H food stand. At the end of the week, the president picks the top overall winners. The contest only accepts baked fruit or nut pies; pies requiring refrigeration are not allowed.

Food Sale

After judging, open class and 4-H food entries will go up for sale. Proceeds benefit Douglas County 4-H.

Naturally Nutritious Food Festival and Cooking Contest

Fresh Fruit. Written recipes required for all categories.

Farmers’ Market

4-8 p.m. Thursday, Aug. 2, north of Extension Office.

The Cottin’s Hardware Farmers’ Market will move its market from the store to the fairgrounds for one night. More than 30 vendors, including school gardens, are expected to sell local produce and homemade goods. There will be a “produce check” in the Dreher 4-H building, where patrons can leave the produce they purchased while they enjoy the rest of the fair.

Wednesday, Aug. 1, Building 21. Entries accepted from 6-7 p.m., with judging at 7 p.m.

Open categories are Fresh Salsa, Creative Cold Salads, International Cuisine, Local Goodness Main Dish (must feature at least four ingredients produced or grown in Kansas), Appetizer or Snack (made with local ingredients) and Healthy Dessert made with fresh fruit. Young Chef Categories, for cooks 12 and younger, are Quick Lunch Idea featuring Local Produce and Healthy Snacks featuring

the chicken broth and stir to combine.

Then add the squash, sage and other seasonings, as well as the cream.

Preheat the oven around this point to 350 degrees.

Next, heat another skillet and slice the sausage.

Brown over medium high heat on both sides.

Combine the sauce/veggie mixture with the shredded mozzarella, pasta and chicken sausage, and coat everything well. I do all of this in the actual casserole dish so as to avoid dirtying another bowl. Then top everything with slices of fresh mozzarella, and bake for 20 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

aspect with thoughts of garden squash and the low-fat chicken sausage.

I’ll say it again: Stop judging me! While this might seem fussy to make, it really isn’t. All the steps happen fairly quickly and I had the whole thing assembled and on the table in about 45 minutes, including baking time. I just served it with a simple green salad. It made lots of leftovers, which was perfect for weekday lunches and busy weeknights when there’s no time to create in the kitchen. Trust me, for as much as it made (would probably serve six generously), we made short work of it, just the two of us.

This was a serious hit.

Mr. Meat and Potatoes LOVED it, and I assuaged my guilt over the dairy

5:30 p.m. Thursday, Aug. 2, north of Extension Office.

Three Lawrence chefs will demonstrate seasonal recipes using food from farmers’ market vendors. Last year’s winner, Free State Brewery chef Russell Iverson, will compete against Dave Nigro of Hy-Vee and Wallace Cochran of the Merc. Judges will select the winner, and samples will be shared with the public, which will pick the winner of the people’s choice award.

KATHERINE BERKOWITZ, LAWRENCE, bakes bread in her kitchen. Berkowitz bakes twice a week for family and friends, and has had numerous award-winning entries in her years entering the open baking contest at the Douglas County Fair.

Flour power Repeat champs lead Douglas County Fair baking contests

By Sara Shepherd sshepherd@ljworld.com

ALIENE BIEBER, LAWRENCE, displays a homemade cherry pie while an apple pie cools on the stove. Bieber is a long-time participant in the Douglas County Fair open baking contest, where her pies have won ribbons for years.

Aliene Bieber’s homemade cherry pie is just what the baking judge ordered.

The sugar-sprinkled crust is golden and flaky throughout, and even the crimped edge is tender enough to cut easily with a flimsy plastic fork. The filling is full of fruit flavor, slightly tart but not sour, and firm enough that a few cherries may fall behind but the slice holds its shape when transferred to a plate.

Bieber’s pies are legendary at the Douglas County Fair, where she’s been entering — and often winning — the open baking contest for decades.

“She is the queen,” said fellow baker Katherine Berkowitz, Lawrence. “She has no equal.”

For the past few years, Bieber, Berkowitz and Harold Agnew, all Lawrence residents, have repeatedly topped the list of winners in the open contest. Not only do they all love baking, they’ve also put in a lot of practice.

That shows in their ability to turn out purple-ribbon baked items year after year, said Susan Johnson, Family and Consumer Sciences extension agent for Douglas County K-State Research and Extension, who added that judges are

h, summer bounty.

It’s hard to even decide every week what to publish here because I’m having so much fun playing with my CSA bags, my garden veggies, and the beauties I bring home from the farmers’ market. Sweet corn, squash and tomatoes are our best friends right now.

We’re all very close and happy together.

We’ve done a lot of inventive salads and grilling, and Mr. Meat and Potatoes has been learning to use the smoker this summer, so the food is fresh, outdoorsy and simple.

But once in a while, even in the middle of a

a blog by Megan Stuke heat wave, I crave pasta.

I sometimes need a hot dish and a change of pace.

Also, I really love cheesy, saucy pasta.

Recently, I decided it was time for one of our traditional pasta Sunday dinners, so I decided to bring some of that great

together. The results were astoundingly delicious, if not easy on my air conditioner or calorie count.

I love an “orange sauce.” In my house, that is what we call tomato cream sauce. This summer, there has been a lot of cream in my refrigerator because I’ve made weekly batches of homemade ice cream. Stop judging me. So I couldn’t resist the siren song of adding a little of it to my pasta on this particular Sunday night. Blame pregnancy. My will is not my own.

PUBLIC NOTICE CONTINUED ON 8

Dear Annie: I am an attractive 30-something female who began experiencing thinning hair in my late 20s due to a thyroid disorder. Many women have the confidence to accept their hair loss and do nothing to hide it. I admire that.

However, for me, it contributes to embarrassment, low self-esteem and a lack of confidence.

When I started wearing wigs several years ago, I could only afford synthetics, but found some affordable, realistic ones.

The problem? There have been a handful of times when people — namely co-workers and guests at social gatherings — have come right out and asked me, in the company of others no less, whether I wear a wig. Their tactlessness never fails to stun me, and the only response I can muster is, “Why do you ask?” The most common response is, “It always looks too

perfect.”

More appalling is when people touch or tug on my hair without my permission to “see if it’s real.” I fear that one day someone will pull it off.

My experience has been painful and personal. Other than my doctor, I never have admitted to anyone that I wear a wig. It’s no one’s business.

Why on earth are these people so fixated on my hair? How do I respond to these intrusive, thoughtless and insensitive people without rais-

Commercials star in show Will the folks who use gadgets to zip through advertisements sit still for “The CLIOs: World’s Best Commercials” (7 p.m., NBC)? JB Smoove hosts this collection of standouts from around the world.

Many celebrities who find it beneath them to appear in American commercials accept big paychecks to appear in ads overseas.

That was the premise for Bill Murray’s character in the acclaimed 2003 film “Lost in Translation.” Look for Jason Bateman, Kevin Bacon and Will Arnett, among others, touting products that may seem anything but familiar.

“Jimmy Fallon’s Primetime Music Special” (9 p.m., NBC) covers the best musical bits and collaborations he’s done on his late night show with celebrity guests, including Justin Timberlake, Paul McCartney, Bruce Springsteen and Carly Rae Jepsen. The late night host also offers original songs and musical impersonations, such as his take on Neil Young singing “The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air.”

With the eyes of the world turning toward London for the Summer Games, “Absolutely Fabulous: Olympics Special” (9 p.m., BBC America) offers a satirical look at the natives’ view of the games, an event some see as a celebration and others as an intrusive bother.

As “Ab Fab” begins, Eddy (Jennifer Saunders) has rented out her flat to a Hollywood A-lister.

But she’s refused to leave, as have Eddy’s moocher friend Patsy (Joanna Lumley), her daughter (Julia Sawalha), her mother (June Whitfield) and her assistant Bubble (Jane Horrocks).

Even if your wig is more obvious than you think, it does not excuse such terrible behavior. We know you don’t want to disclose your hair loss, but it might be quite liberating and certainly would put an end to the anxiety you have over discovery.

Until then, however, feel free to respond to these idiots with wide eyes and a shocked expression, saying, “I’m sure you didn’t intend to be so rude.” Then walk away.

if we include out-oftowners from our side, we also have to include the bride’s side.

Is it normal protocol to invite out-of-town guests to the rehearsal dinner? Could we invite only some of them? — Rehearsal Blues Dear Blues: If there are large numbers of outof-town guests, you do not need to invite them to the rehearsal dinner, although you should provide some type of refreshment when they arrive, either in their hotel rooms or by way of a hospitality suite. If there are people traveling a great distance who are special to the family, you may invite them individually, but we don’t recommend including most of the groom’s side and none of the bride’s.
